Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Tues Dec 5

I couldn't find Plyo X so I just did Cardio X. Nice sweaty workout, but not like Imax 2 or Kill Max. Tony is so funny. OMG! Had fun with it and now I have to get my house cleaned. Dag gone it, I forgot to put my monitor on AGAIN! Once I get in a habit, I won't forget it.

Charlotte~~
 
Amber - It took me about a year to figure that out. I'd called her Diana Sue also!! LOL.

Toasty - I don't think you looked very hard if you couldn't find it! Where did it go?

Dallys- I mean what did you notice different about your upper body muscle?? from P90X??
 
thanks lora...my mother's name was diana, I think it might have something to do with that.

CHAR!!!! No pylo????? what...you lost it???? LOL, well, we will let you know how it was, I'm a bit scared with that one. I don't like high impact moves. Ya know...I may be to much of a wuss for you hardcores}( }( }
 
I decided to do cardio fusion mixed cardio premix and B&G ball abs. I dont think i should of done that high of an impact workout because my legs are so sore and I have B&G tomorrow ouch}( I just love the music on drill max drills so i blasted it on my surround sound!
I'm off today yeah!!!!!
I cant wait to get done with this months rotation so I can start my slow and heavy series i just got yesterday!
Randi
 
Everything went well at the docs. Kids are alright. My total cholesterol went down from 203 to 166! Rockin number baby!


Char-- did you chicken out of Plyo-X??? Just teasing. Hell, I don't even know what it is. Just think it sounds a tad evil! Good job with your cardio though. I know how much you love it!

Deb- how much snow did you get?

Amber- have fun with sexy legged Tony tonight! I will pay attention nexxt time I do AbRx. I prefer my DH's hairy legs too.

DS- good luck with the vet!

Netta- my goodness woman! You are way to hard on yourself! I think you look great! You have definition already, before P90x! Can't wait for the after pics.

Dallys- the cold affects my hands and toes too, but it causes me pain, numbness. The Rheumatologist says it is probably a form of Reynauds. I seem to have the "factor" or whatever it is in my bloodwork. Actually ran outside to get something out of the car and didn't put gloves on, and paid for it! I have to wear very thick and snug gloves, and keep my toes warm. I always wear slippers in the house since I have alot of hardwood.

Well, time to put the boys to bed, like.....NOW!!

Hey again! Had some customers not show, so I'm like, now what? I think I'll go make a salad and cook some string beans and some sweet potatoes to get me through the rest of the week. I confess. I had banana bread for breakfast. It was a nice big slice.

Char- How does one lose Plyo X. It's your sub-conscience playing with you.

Lora- I feel more muscle in my shoulders and my Lats. I think I might see alittle chest muscle also.

Randi-Good workout! Enjoy your day off.

Meg- Yeah it was definitely the cold and stress that brought it on. I'm keeping an eye on it. It's happened 2 times so far. But, I really notice it. Did you do anything special, besides exercise and eating well too get your cholesterol down? Last time I checked mine was a couple of years ago and it was 190 down from 200. I wonder what mine is now.

Off to the kitchen....

Diane Sue - After training my legs like this for 4 weeks, do you think I should do a recovery week before I start my next 4 weeks, or is it okay to keep going?

Would you ladies believe my cholesterel is 290?? It is and it doesn't come down cuz it's not due to diet....it's hereditary! I'm supposed to be taking medicine but I don't want to take it....so I keep putting it off. He says my ratios are good though cuz of all my exercise. I take Fish Oil capsules per the doctor.

Deb - Cardio X has a yoga warmup and then it's a mixture of kickboxing and plyo aerobics/athletic aerobics.
 
Suz, that is the picture of gizmo that makes my heart almost cry, I am so happy for you...saw on o/d that his pix won a prize!!! I have to ask though...do they know the story behind him?
Amber...probably should have posted this on o/d oh well.
 
Dallys- nope, just diet and exercise. It was 255 at one point. My mom's is way high, and dad was on meds for it too. Mom still is. So heredity is a factor, but I managed to do it on my own. I have a horrible time remembering to take my medicine (believe it or not) so the less I have to take the better. Although it seems the list grows!
Prednisone
Plaquenil
Vitamin D for immune system and bone health
Calcium
baby aspirin

You might want to ask your doc about doing the baby aspirin daily. My rheumatologist told me to do it to help with the possible Reynauds. Just a thought.


Speaking of which, I know somme of you have mentioned already, so sorry for asking again, but what vitamins and mineral do you guys take daily?

Meg - Is it Sarcoidosis that you have? I can't remember. What makes your pain flare up? My pain's been flaring from the extreme cold setting in.
 
No chicken here. I don't believe so. I seriously cannot find the disk!!!! My son could have put it somewhere or dh. I cannot find it!!! I still got in a great workout and smell to prove it! So whatever. I am gonna finish cleaning now. Starting to feel some DOMS in triceps and chest now.

Charlotte~~
 
I've been meaning to mention that I'm not into the music on the new series at all.....especially Butts & Guts. I really liked the music on the Hardcore series. Is anyone else not feeling the music on the new series?
 
Charlotte- you're so funny!:7 You know, if I smell REALLY bad after, then I know I worked hard enough!! LOL!!! Is your DH doing P90x too?

Lora- yep, Sarcoidosis. Extreme stress will cause a flare up, which includes loss of appetite and extreme fatigue, with the pain.
But I have been noticing that the cold will make my joints hurt too. Sucks, cuz it is a long winter around here! I was only diagnosed with this less then a year ago too.

Meg,

He he. No dh is not doing anything but his usual weight lifting on weekends.

O.k. ladies, I am so glad I did do cardio today cuz I am just really down in the dumps. My FIL is about to move in with us. I have told a few of you about him. He has sold his home in Maryland. Needs to find a place to stay in Texas, Arizona..hasn't decided yet. Still needs to get on a plane and check out stuff and decide. Only problem is flights are too too expensive this time of the year. So he will be with us very soon. I have no idea how long either...could be a month, months or hate to think...until Summer???? My MIL has told me he is very difficult to live with. He is a chain smoker too. I can't deal with smoke and he can't smoke outside cuz dh won't let him cuz he can get sick easily with pnemonia, etc. and that is why he is gonna move to a warmer climate. Anyhow, he can be verbally abusive or if you look at him the wrong way..flip out. I have just been CONSUMED with all these thoughts of how it is gonna be with him here and I don't know how I will be able to deal with it. I don't know if my hubby will support me or not if dear dad decides to get mouthy with me. It is his dad.

Any suggestions, advice or words of encouragement is appreciated. I am just trying to prepare myself for his possible lengthy stay.

I contacted Beachbody thru an email and they say they never got my order. Oh well. The email says to give them all my info.(thru email) and they'll give me the same deal. I ain't gonna give them my CC# thru an email. LOL! Doh! Anyhoos, those that have the new TJ's do you really like them? Are they worth it? I might wait for the next sale.

Lora-Yes! I remember thinking the same as you on the music. This is when I had my DVD's (they are still in the mail, since DD borrowed them). I remember telling her that the music is REAL TECHNOEY. She said, 'like the blast series'? And I said, 'There's Nothing Cathe has like it'. LOL!

Char-Oh! I feel for you and your FIL deal. I don't know what to tell you. I don't think I could do it. But, then if you don't have a choice, I guess you'll just have to make the best of it and be as nice-and-patient as you can. Sounds like he needs to quit smoking, but that's obviously not happenin'. The hard part is that you are stuck at home with him and DH will be working and won't see the big picture of what you are dealing with all day. Hope it's only for 1 week! 2 tops!

Meg- I hope my numbness is just a coinscidence (sp?).

Off to the basement... Low Max is calling.

Meg - we got about 2 inches. Not as much as it looked this morning. I thought it was a lot more then that.

Char - I don't know what to tell you either. One of my biggest fears is having one of my inlaws move in with us. But if it happened I'd make the best of it or try too. The smoking would be a no no for me, however, no matter how easily they can catch pnemonia. My lungs are too important to me to be smelling others second hand smoke. Have no idea how you can deal with that, though. Sorry this is happening to you!
 
Dallys,
I did 1 this am and it is ok, but not a great workout.Abs are nothing. It is an interval. Not real intense. I did not look at the other.Ok for a not so want to w/o day.

I may like it better w/ a medecine ball..
I love the music on B&G. It cranks me when i am dying.
The rockin dadada when i am dying.

I am really tired today.
Aunt flo is coming and i have been dragging all day..
Char, you have mail.

Deb- we got about 2-3 inches too. Kids already making snow angels!

Char- I emailed you. Not much advice, but we will be here daily, and nightly, whenever you need to vent. Take some of that frustration out on the weights. You'll be curling 50#ers in no time! Seriously, we are here. I wish you the best of luck.:* ;)

Dallys- good luck with your hands. Does the cold affect them? I know stress and cold can cause Reynauds flare ups. I am not sure it I have total Reynauds (if that makes sense) since I don't really go numb, just PAIN! lol. I will talk more about it again to my doc in 2 weeks when we are scheduled to talk again. Interesting though. Maybe I am just weird!! Well, I guess I already knew that huh!
